Default Do 17in. ET Street hook?

Since these may have a smaller sidewall, I was wondering how well they would hook...what are your thoughts or experience with these? Also, what would be the widest ET I could fit on a 17x10 smoothie 2?

I used to run them when I had a pt4000 stall and would have to roll into the gas with them, I think I had a best of 1.67 60ft with them. and as far as the wheel I really dont think u will like them, on my factory ws6 17x9 when u lay the wheel on the ground the bead lips hit and not the tire(little skinny for the size) and a buddy is running them on his 03 cobra and spins them like crazy. just my opinion

Mine hooked so well, they roasted a 1300 dollar clutch. OUCH!
